Are there any obvious difference between this and the clean? I keep reading about rounded lugs but I cannot identify what lugs are rounded. They look the same to me.

It's not the 126500 Daytona from VS that has an issue but the 116500.

Look at the crown coronet - big O, which never existed in 126500.

And if you look closely you'll see the differences. Look at marker length and the bevelled edges.

Of course since I had to point this out you probably wouldnt notice or care abour such things.

Although this is the best watch forum, people are still people, and get very ‘tribal’ about rep factories. Someone from team Clean, team VSF, or team BTF will make a dive by shit post about another factory, and then half a dozen other minions from the same camp will slap a like on the comment, giving it a false sense of kudos.

Yea I get that, just trying to see if there's something I didn't notice. Like when I first came to this forum and somebody pointed out that I was being sold a 7750 Daytona and not a 4131

You mean the applied crown on the dial at the 12?

What edges are chamfered vs beveled? I cannot tell from the pics

I pulled the trigger on this!

You can take the time to compare real or gen. Apply yourself. That's the only way you can learn otherwise you'll be asking for 5 years the same questions.

If you can't notice it - then why bother it won't impact you if you buy it or not.

Oh, no it's nothing like that. These 'huge' differences are acknowledged by all, and are often mentioned to the new kids, as they see the 7750 Daytonas and wonder why they are so cheap. The reality is that with the 7750, not only is the watch dramatically thicker and quite obviously fake, but it contains a movement which will shit itself if you use the chrono.

The differences between the top factories using 4130 / 4141 clones are generally opinions and preferences more than they are facts - they are so minute as to almost be comical.
